Discipline Plan

Discipline is another word for self-control.  One of our goals is to help your child develop their own means of managing their attitudes and behaviors in an age-appropriate way.

We offer plenty of praise and reward for making right choices.  An effective program also contains preplanned measures for dealing with situations when the child becomes out of self-control.

The following steps will be followed:

  1. Verbal warnings
  2. Time out (a cooling off period)
  3. A visit with the director
  4. Phone call to parent

Under no circumstances will the child receive correction that is punitive, either emotionally or physically. 

With those same values in mind, we can not allow children who are abusive to remain in the classroom.  This may include children:

  • Who continuously hurt others 
  • Who are chronically mean
  • Who are extremely disrespectful or disobedient to teachers
  • Who cause major disruptions to the group activities

Children who are out of self-control will be removed from the classroom and parents will be notified.  The parents, director and teacher will work together to make a behavior modification plan as a team.  If the behavior does not improve to acceptable limits we will have to ask the child to withdraw in the interest of the well-being of the entire class.
